re: Cannon's run question...

What most are overlooking is not how fast Cannon was....yes, he was fast then and would be considered upper-end even today. The thing that was most different from then to now, is the broader range of speed among all the players.
What I mean by....broader range of speed. Comparing the range, those of Yesterday would be broader, hence wider, varying range of times.
The slowest then, would be considered very slow now, the fastest then, would still be pretty fast. A slow lineman today would be blazing against the linemen of yesterday. That would be the one biggest difference.
